Casemaker training debuts at Norfolk Law Library next Tuesday, Oct. 2

Training sessions also in Worcester on Oct. 15 and Andover on Oct. 18

The MBA will host Casemaker training in the public computer area at the Norfolk Law Library on October 2. Desktop stations will be available in addition to seating for attendees wishing to bring and use laptop computers. Laptop usage is made possible by available wireless internet access.

NOTE: Because space at Casemaker trainings is limited, online enrollment is not available. To register for a training session, call Member Services at (617) 338-0530 or toll-free at (877) 676-6500.

Casemaker has had many new features added, including: CaseCheck, an enhanced case law search results function, database availability for all 50 states, nationwide collections of combined Supreme Court and ethics opinions and more. Additionally, Casemaker Version 2.0 has been released, in testing phase. Casemaker Version 2.0 will eventually replace the current version of Casemaker. In the meantime, MBA members can access Version 2.0 to get a feel for the system, before it becomes the default searching option.

All attendees bringing laptop computers must have a wireless card or other means for achieving wireless connectivity. Neither the MBA nor the Norfolk Law Library is responsible for any connectivity problems that directly arise from issues unique to personal laptop computers.
